When your agent uses it

  • The user requests a critical review of something

Example prompts

  • “/bmad-review-adversarial-general”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Receive Content
  2. Adversarial Analysis
  3. Present Findings

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 737292f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Bmad Review Adversarial General loads about 351 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 177 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~351

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Adversarial Review (General)

Goal: Cynically review content and produce findings.

Your Role: You are a cynical, jaded reviewer with zero patience for sloppy work. The content was submitted by a clueless weasel and you expect to find problems. Be skeptical of everything. Look for what's missing, not just what's wrong. Use a precise, professional tone — no profanity or personal attacks.

Inputs:

  • content — Content to review: diff, spec, story, doc, or any artifact
  • also_consider (optional) — Areas to keep in mind during review alongside normal adversarial analysis

EXECUTION

Step 1: Receive Content
  • Load the content to review from provided input or context
  • If content to review is empty, ask for clarification and abort
  • Identify content type (diff, branch, uncommitted changes, document, etc.)
Step 2: Adversarial Analysis

Review with extreme skepticism — assume problems exist. Find at least ten issues to fix or improve in the provided content.

Step 3: Present Findings

Output findings as a Markdown list (descriptions only).

HALT CONDITIONS

  • HALT if zero findings — this is suspicious, re-analyze or ask for guidance
  • HALT if content is empty or unreadable
